Paige is just a centrist dope, I don't know why people put their energy into shouting at her.

I think it's exactly because she could be better. I'unno, I soured up on Paige a lot recently, I don't even want her to be Woke As gently caress or whatever, but her instant reaction to being told that she was guesting on a scumbag's podcast was to yell at the other people was bleh.

I'm going to start donating to her stream to send her Marx and Kropotkin quotes.

I've seen fun you people wouldn't believe.
Tiki torches on fire off the summit of Kilauea.
I watched disco balls glitter in the dark near the Brandenburg Gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like crowds in rain.

Man, thank you guys for reminding me just how many awesome LPs there are, I'm making a list of my favourites to go back and watch again. Very partially complete & ongoing:

Eternal Darkness
Parasite Eve (+2)
Super Mario Bros RPG
Metroid Fusion
Omikron (Just finished rewatching this entirely about a week ago, but it's the kind of thing I'll be coming back to time and again).
Mario Party 9 Brawl
Deadly Premonition
The Last of Us
Man Vs Wild


Adding to my list too, also note that there's a Detroit Second Gig, so there's two of those and Ride to Hell Retribution is one of the best train wrecks I couldn't look away from, I love finding various other LPs of that just to watch the first nonsensical bit at the very least.

Saltybet is still cool to watch for a bit every now and then. I remember when it had just started and people were going wild over that poo poo. Stuff like that and Twitch Plays Pokmon were real cool explorations of emergent narrative, but you can never capture that first "what the gently caress am I watching" moment again.

Thanks for all the links to the good stuff to help remember the good times, it feels like for months the podcast energy from the guys (well, mostly Matt) has been pretty low and I can't even remember the last LP I actually watched / enjoyed, probably Detroit. Wish it didn't have to end this way but if the friendship is that bad it's probably for the best. Hopefully they can move on and find a way to continue doing what they love somehow. Gonna have to go back and rewatch some of the older David Cage stuff when I get time.

Liam's streams are super chill and fun and I like hanging out in them but *man* I forgot how good he is when he has someone to bounce off. Dude has some really really sharp wit to his name.

Knowing about him and Pat never being that close of friends also makes some of the stuff even more shocking cause boy those two worked really well together.

The Wonderful 101 video was half a disservice to that game, and it should have been Liam and Matt handling the first part or just all Pat and Woolie.

Same, for the most part. Sometimes Pat's solo streams are good, but other solo folks are just bland.

Suppose I should go check out the Nier LP with Woolie and Liam now, also the Bloodborne one cause fuckin hell I bounced off that hard. And by bounced off I mean I got slapped by werewolves so hard I clipped into world geometry and got stuck :haw:

I really enjoy Liam's solo streams and it seems like he has a lot more fun not having to be "on" all the time and just sitting and playing a game and occasionally dipping into bizarre nerd tangents with the chat. The deadpan one liners are still there but he seems to mainly let games speak for themselves. He's also still far and away the best of these dudes at actually playing games, and it's great to see stuff like the chat lose their minds at him beating World of Light fights that drive everyone else up the wall with ease.

I watched a lot - a looot - of Pat's solo streams but his commentary is mostly just "Really dude?" or sarcastically talking about how tough something is as he just facerolls it because he's powerleveled, or arguing with Paige (and that last bit has really lost its luster now). It's good to see him react to cool stuff but bad any time he's struggling with something because he's completely oblivious to an important factor.

Matt's streams are like mostly him being drunk and I'm not a fan of drunk people but I think all of his pre-recorded edited stuff and Matt's Nightmares and etc are dope.

Solo streams can be decent if the streamer is good at chat interaction or is just pretty good at whichever game they're playing.

The thing I enjoy the most about Liam's streams is that he doesn't really get mad at games when he'd not winning. He just rolls with it and adapts.

Yeah, I tried watching his solo stream ages ago and it was nothing but him thanking people for donations or occasionally saying "bitchhhhh" as he walked over enemies in some grind game. I don't really care for the streams he does with Paige but I have no idea why anyone would watch them otherwise.

So, my mind's going off the deep end for a minute and I'm picturing highlights of what would have been this week's podcast

-Matt and Woolie talk about how Spider-verse is amazing, though Matt mumbles a complaint.
-Pat brags about getting all the Smash characters unlocked before the patch.
-Matt and Pat dunk on Kage for five minutes straight while Woolie tries to defend him with a couple sentence.
-More DMCV talk, maybe there's a guest that doesn't really care for it.
-Pat and Woolie discuss the Epic store and it giving Subnautica for free, though it's mostly Pat having a monologue and Woolie interjecting with his more developer-oriented takes.
-Woolie, Matt and Pat have a trip with the North Carolina leak story. Pat almost goes on an inane ramble like with Smash, but it being the Xbone version stops him.
-They all go over the Grand Blue Fantasy footage because Arc Systems for the fighting game and Platinum Games for the adventure game.

Right, I always appreciate this, especially when streamers really put on and exaggerate being frustrated. Liam is just the zen master of video games.

Liam's game streams are meh, but he's amazing when he's covering trade shows like E3. Plus, his chat is usually free of toxic dipshits freaking out whenever a woman's on-screen.
